Congrats on your new lease on an equestrian life! Curlies are so cute. I'd love to see more of them in the show ring.
Ha Ha Love the picture!! I have 2x ducks that think they are chickens & 1X ducking that has just hatched.
My instructor charges $85/lesson. I never found it unfair. It's not a cheap sport for instructors or students. For a carefully selected, big name clinician, $400-$500 for a weekend seems pretty reasonable. I would certainly want to find someone I th…
Rollin', Rollin' Rollin', Raw--hide!!!
Have none of these dimwits listened to Clark Howard?! A penny saved is a penny earned! Now if only could sink this change into an IRA.
You should see what I stuffed the stocking with!
Terrifying!!
I have to agree with slc2. This is a good opportunity to work through his issues. If he's Aced, he won't learn a thing.
I've never had any luck with herbals. I have had a small amount of success using Regu-mate on my gelding. Unfortunately, it's ext…
I think you made your point quite well. For me, it was really interesting, and exciting, to see the changes in the horse as I improved the quality of the contact. It's equally interesting, but less exciting, to see the changes that occur if I let my…
Nice post slc2. Being too soft in the contact has been a real battle for me.
I agree completely with everyone else who posted. I would like to add a thought about scoring in general. It seems to me that scores are on the rise in all of the major competitions. I remember the beginning of this EG winning streak. He broke the r…
Experience, awards and certifications are very important to me. I got tangled up with a hack when I first started dressage. It was a gut wrenching, confidence shaking experience no one should have to endure. Now I have a instructor I can trust. Not…
I just bought a pair of Mountain Horse Mountain High Riders. They rock! They have a lot of extra room in them for doubled socks and extra pant layers. They're very waterproof (my #1 criteria). They break in relatively quickly. I'm very pleased and s…
Seriously dude, let me lead or I'll run you over.
Thanks Jan. I've definitely learned a lot from my TB. The most important thing I've learned is that rehab is not for me. I'm very proud of the progress we've made, but it has been gruelling. Buying a horse without baggage is definitely high on my li…
Hi, Kinni:
For some reason the site's insisting on my response in a different place, so I hope you get it!
I love mares, but then I love horses, regardless of sex, size, colour or breed. Right now I'm riding mares almost exclusviely as competition…

- Thanks folks! I can see this is going to be fun already.
Admin, I'm not yet expert with it. I would love to participate in some discussions though. I've been using clicker for about three months now. It really was a last resort after I realized I was in over my head with a rescue horse. (He's coming along very nicely now that we can communicate.) I'll put a shout out on the clickryder yahoo group. Some of those folks are expert and I know they love to share their knowledge. Jane Savoie just interviewed two of them for her site, Sharon Foley and Dolores Arste.

Barnmice Admin said… - Hey Kinny, right after I left you a message, I noticed that you do clicker training. Are you expert at it? I thought it might be fun to do a little series on the philosophy and training ideas for our community and was wondering if any of our members knew anything about it!

Question: When I ride my hands bounce up and down at all the gaits. Not a lot but enough so I am not riding horses to the best of my ability and knowledge. I can keep the horse on the bit but in the posting trot every time I go up my hands come up t…
One of my minis did this too so we put the fence boards farther apart so he couldn't rub. You could also try putting wire mesh fencing on the wooden fencing so your mini can't reach through at all

Thank you so much, Barbara, for this late-breaking and outstanding news from the FEI--I was not holding my breath about this decision because frnkly, I didn't think it would happen, but I am so happy with their absolute stand against hyperflexion!!…
